Engineering Guide Specifi cations
The coaxial water-to-refrigerant heat exchangers shall be designed
for close approach temperatures and be con struct ed of a convoluted
copper (optional cu pron ick el) inner tube and a steel outer tube. The
thermal expansion valves shall provide proper superheat over the entire
fl uid temperature range with minimal “hunting”. The valve shall operate
bi-directionally without the use of check valves.
The water-to-re frig er ant heat exchanger and refrigerant suction lines
shall be insulated to prevent condensation at low liquid tem per a tures.
Fan Motor and Blower
The fan shall be a direct drive centrifugal type with a dynamically
balanced wheel. The housing and wheel shall be designed for quiet low
outlet velocity op er a tion and of galvanized steel con struc tion. Tight
fan housing geometry shall not be permitted. The fan housing shall be
removable from the unit without disconnecting the supply air ductwork
for servicing of the fan motor. The fan motor shall be an ECM variable
speed type. The ECM fan motor shall provide soft starting, maintain
constant CFM over its static operating range and provide airfl ow
adjustment on its control board. The fan motor shall be isolated from
the housing by rubber grom mets. The motor shall be permanently
lu bri cat ed and have thermal overload protection.
Electrical
CXM Control - A microprocessor-based compressor controller shall
be provided to monitor and control unit operation. The control shall
provide com pres sor and electric heater sequencing, high and low
pressure monitoring, fi eld selectable water and air coil freeze protection
sensing, condensate overfl ow sensing, over/under voltage monitoring, and
unit performance sentinel (UPS). The control shall also provide for water
valve connection, a test mode, short cycle protection, random start-up,
as well as fault LED, fault mem o ry, and intelligent fault retry.
The control shall employ quick attach harness as sem blies for low
voltage connections to the control board to aid in troubleshooting or
replacement. An integral terminal block with screw ter mi nals shall be
provided on the control for all fi eld low voltage connections. A circuit
breaker protected 75VA transformer shall be employed. Line voltage
box lugs shall be provided for unit wiring. Units shall have knockouts for
entrance of low and line voltage wiring. The fan motor and control box
shall be harness plug-connected for easy removal.
Residential models shall have a dual circut-breaker protected power block
for the connection of external fl ow controller pump module.
Piping
Supply and return water connections, as well as Hot Water Generator
(desuperheater) connections shall be 1" IPT (Internal Pipe Thread)
brass swivel fi ttings which provide a union and eliminate the need for
pipe wrenches and sealants when making fi eld con nec tions. A thread
by sweat fi tting shall be provided for connection to the water heater.
All water piping shall be in su lat ed to prevent condensation at low liquid
tem per a tures.
The condensate connection shall be a 3/4" PVC glue (socket) with
internal-trap (Vertical Models).
General
The water source heating/cooling units shall be vertical upfl ow air
discharge. Units shall be AHRI/ISO/ASHRAE 13256-1 (ground-source
closed-loop) per for mance cer ti fi ed and listed by a nationally recognized
safety-testing lab o ra to ry or agency. Each unit shall be water run-tested
at the factory. Each unit shall be pallet mounted and shipped with
appropriate protective packaging to help avoid damage in transportation.
Units shall be warranted by the manufacturer against defects
in materials and workmanship for a period ten years on the
compressor and refrigerant circuit parts and fi ve years on all
remaining parts, with a service labor allowance for the fi rst fi ve
years on the compressor and refrigerant circuit parts and two years
on all remaining parts. An optional extended labor warranty is
available which extends the service labor allowance to ten years for
the compressor and refrigeration circuit parts and fi ve years on all
remaining parts.
The water source units shall be de signed to operate with entering fl uid
tem per a ture between 20°F and 120°F.
Casing & Cabinet
The cabinet shall be fabricated from heavy-gauge galvanized steel
and painted with an epoxy powder coating. The interior shall be
insulated with 1/2" thick, multi-density, coated glass fi ber. Insulation in
the air handler section shall be foil backed for ease of cleaning. Two
(vertical), one (horizontal) blower compartment and three compressor
compartment access panels shall be pro vid ed and shall be re mov able
with supply and return ductwork in place. The internal component layout
shall provide for major service with the unit in-place for re strict ed access
installations.
A duct collar (Field installed) shall be provided on the supply air opening.
2" high effi ciency MERV11 pleated fi lters shall be provided with each
unit. Units shall have fi lter frames. The units shall have an insulated
divider panel between the air handling section and the com pres sor
section to minimize the transmission of compressor noise, and to permit
op er a tion al service testing without air bypass. Units shall be supplied with
left or right air inlet.
Refrigerant Circuit
All units shall contain EarthPure® (HFC 410A) sealed re frig er ant
circuit employing a hermetic motor-com pres sor, bidirectional thermal
expansion valve, fi nned tube air-to-refrigerant heat exchanger, reversing
valve, coaxial tube water-to-refrigerant heat exchanger and service
ports. An optional Hot Water Generator (desuperheater) coil shall be
provided.
Compressors shall be Copeland UltraTech™ Two-Stage scroll type
designed for heat pump duty and mounted on spring vibration isolators.
Compressor motors shall be single phase PSC with internal over load
protection. A factory installed bidirectional fi lter drier shall be provided
on all models. The fi nned tube coil shall be sized for low-face velocity and
constructed of lanced aluminum fi ns bonded to rifl ed copper tubes in
a staggered pattern not less than three rows deep. Entire air coil surface
shall be e-coated for corrosion protection.
